We Must Become What We Wish To

You Are Not Likely To Bring Out The Best In People Or Nurture Their Creativity If Every Time You Hear About Their Problems You Instantly Offer A Solution Encourage People To Look For Their Own Solutions-and Project The Knowledge That They Are Capable Of Doing So.

Innovators And Creators Are Persons Who Can To A Higher Degree Than Average Accept The Condition Of Aloneness. They Are More Willing To Follow Their Own Vision, Even When It Takes Them Far From The Mainland Of The Human Community. Unexplored Places Do Not Frighten Them- Or Not, At Any Rate, As Much As They Frighten Those Around Them. This Is One Of The Secrets Of Their Power. That Which We Call Genius Has A Great Deal To Do With Courage And Daring, A Great Deal To Do With Nerve.

When Your Principles Seem To Be Demanding Suicide, Clearly It's Time To Check Your Premises

If You Face Life Without Confidence In Your Own Powers, You Succumb Too Easily To Setbacks And Adversity; You Lack The Will To Persevere.

A Commitment To Lifelong Learning Is A Natural Expression Of The Practice Of Living Consciously.
